I listened to this story on the radio and they were interviewing the guy who shot the video.

The person who recorded it had said that the man was acting aggressively throwing things around etc but once the police came he calmed down and appeared to cooperate. They then tasered him and one of the officers knelt on the mans head/throat with his full weight. I havent read a lot about the story, but I cant see why someone would kneal on someones head once he has be subdued by a taser.

They also brought on a Polish interpreter from some Polish group (so perhaps more than a little biased) After listening to the event she said that the man sounded as if he were relived that the police had arrived.

I personally think that the guy was an idiot to start trashing an airport but when 4 police arrive I cant see why they would taser him. Couldnt the four of them simply grab him, cuff him and then find out whats going on. With airport security the way it is the likely hood of the man having a gun, knife or nail clippers would be very low. The taser has become the quick easy way to control a situation and not the "last resort" as it was intended.
